Loosebinding Books was created on a restaurant napkin . . . (picture of restaurant setting or napkin). I’m serious!
About a year ago, my wife and I were out for dinner with good friends celebrating Valentine’s Day. Our friend, Michelle, is an established author and has been steadily honing her writing craft with lots of hard work and a recent book deal. She was just getting ready to publish her fifth book through a traditional publisher. But she had an idea for a new book outside her normal genre. Her new idea was a non-fiction book about the craft of writing (how to stay motivated as a writer, how to create a plot, how to create characters people want to read about, that sort of thing). She intended to compile these from assorted blog entries she’d written over the past several years. Her blog readers were asking for such a resource. She was giving it some serious thought.
“Michelle, we’ve been talking about self-publishing for some time now. Maybe it’s time.”
Her reply launched this website. She said, “All I want to do is write. Maybe you should by my publisher and we’ll do it together.”
We talked a little longer about the idea. I scribble some notes on the restaurant napkin. That became the start of this site: LooseBinding Books.
Weeks passed. She gave me her manuscript. Four months later her book rolled off the press just in time to sell at her author’s table after one of her speaking engagements. Loosebinding Books was born.
Our goal is very simple: help authors publish their books.
